| I am sure these are nearly universal but where can I get the little rubber "bumpers" or "snubbers" that sit in the outside door handle casing (I have a '57 Imperial)? I know Gary Goers had them in his catalog but unable to find them anywhere else. Thanks |

Location: Victoria, BC, on Vancouver Island, Canada | Haven't seen anyone else except Gary Goers for these. I made up my own by cutting a small piece of sheet rubber, & glued it on with contact cement. Not original but it worked on my 60 and you can't see the piece of rubber unless you bend down and look up under the handle. |

| Thanks. I guess I will have to do that or come up with some other replacement. Seems I have seen these things being used in something else besides door handles but I can't think of what it was. |

Location: Hay Lakes, Alberta, Canada | How about looking on USA Parts Supply web site, under Cadillac parts...those bumpers look an awful lot like the ash tray bumpers used on my '58 Caddy...
I'll probably use those on my Chryslers, to replace those bumpers. |

Location: Melbourne, Australia | The gary goers ones are aweful and don't sit in tight , as they are moulded very rugged looking . I have one NOS one here I pulled out of a NOS handle ages ago . If you are interested let me know . regards James |

| THAT'S where I've seen them!! I have a couple of 1958 Cadillacs and the USA parts supply catalog. Thanks Brad. By the way I am still interested in that '58 DeSoto trim if you still have it. Sent you a PM on the one you have James. |
